Whew !! As you can tell by that opening, I am tired. Stressed, and tired. School has kept me so enthralled lately, it isnt even funny !! Actually, it's not even homework that keeps me busy, (although essays for my AP Lit class are tough) it is my Journalism class !! I've been made an official staff member for our school paper, the Maderan. I am so ecstatic !! In the last issue that came out last Friday, I had a front page feature article (my first), a full page article on our school play, and my column that is in every issue. Gosh, it is really nice to be able to write something with real merit and be ale to feel good about it. Does that make sense ?? Probably not..oh well..*g*
As for other stuff...my writing (to me) keeps getting stronger and stronger. I am working on a new novel right now that I feel is something I will end up being proud of at the end. It is untitled, but I am pouring everything I have of my heart and my soul into it. It is unlike anything I've ever written before.Wow. Did I just compliment myself ?? I suppose so.
In case that last comment wasn't obvious before, i have a self-esteem/self-confidence problem. I hate giving myself compliments, and it is hard to accept compliments. However, I am getting better. I don't know how I am getting over it, but honestly, I think that my ex-boyfriend and my best friend did it. My ex really made me feel special. I had (at that time) found someone who actually cared about me for me. By no means am I gorgeous, or some model-figure, but someone actually cared and "loved" me for who I was inside and how I looked. =) It made me feel good and I got a small bit of confidence that I could actually find someone who liked ME. As for my best friend Angela...she's just so strong, and so wonderful, that she's made me feel better about myself in general. I know that she's always there to get me up when I may fall.
Okay..enough..*g* this is longer than I usually write. i hope everyone has a good week !!
Stay *N'Sync !!!
